Fricassee of Veal with Fiddleheads

This is a really good recipe espescially
if you are partial to fiddlehead ferns.

Ingredients:
2 tablespoons butter or vegetable oil, or a combination
1 1/2 pounds veal cubes
2 medium onions, chopped
1/2 cup dry white wine
1 tablespoon fresh chervil chopped or 1/4 teaspoon dried
Salt
Freshly ground black pepper
1/3 cup chicken broth or veal broth
1/3 cup heavy cream
3 cups fresh fiddleheads
or 1 (10-ounce) package frozen fiddleheads, thawed

Heat the butter
Directions: or oil in a Dutch oven
and saute the veal pieces lightly
for a few minutes. Add the onions and continue to saute,
stirring, until onion is softened.
Pour in the wine and bring to a boil,
add the chervil and 1/4 cup of broth.
Season with salt and pepper.
Simmer, covered, gently for about 50 minutes,
or until the veal is tender. Check,
and if more liquid is needed during the cooking,
add a little more broth.
When veal is tender, stir in the cream.
Meanwhile, cook the fiddleheads
in 1 quart of boiling salted water for 5 minutes,
or until almost tender.
Drain, fold gently into the veal,
and simmer an additional 3 to 4 minutes.
Taste and adjust the seasoning, if necessary.
